    I have done that before and sold them, think I did batches of 10 and got about £2-£3.

    Also, a little bit of work, but go round all the perfume/beauty counters at Boots, John Lewis, House of Fraser etc and ask if they have any samples. Sold quite a few, particularly designer samples!

    go here http://ocs.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?CustomerSupport type in 'verify' and there will be a list of solutions (hopefully). You can verify your seller identity by phone, PayPal etc etc

    Yes, it was a mixed lot, comprising of shampoo, make-up, perfume samples and skincare. I didn't buy all the mags, some were mags my mum had read and passed on. Quite honestly, I hate the sample sachets, as I can never open them, so usually throw them away anyway!

    Haha thanks very much :) I hate them too plus i don't use much in the way of makeup or perfume etc. so not much use to me and end up in the bin, I shall remember that in the future tho!

    I recently discovered that people will buy empty ink cartridges, depending on the printer. I sold 2 last week :D

    Generally speaking these need to be branded ones - the compatible ones don't sell (not in my experience anyway) :)
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!
